| Zoysa has had the odd wayward bowling performances, and has had more than his fair share of injuries over the bygone years.
I think that there is only a slight chance that his place in the team has not yet gone, but otherwise, i would support the selectors idea of looking to the future.
I agree that Kulusekera is no where near the standard that Zoysa is, but i feel the latter can be compared to Dilhara Fernando in the sense that, when he is on form, and fit and firing, there is no batsman in the world that would feel totally at ease in facing them, and i do include the Australians in that.
Ive seen Zoysa and Fernando in full swing, and by God, are they a sight to behold. Unfortunately they havent had the concistency required, and so their chances of a proper slot in the team may be dwindling, even though they are only in their late twenties.
Like vvrulz said, Nuwan is the only player apart from Malinga, who can be seen as as the Chaminda Vaas' strike partner - although i did have high hopes for Charitha Buddika at one stage...
To answer Navdeep's question, i do believe that Dinusha Fernando is in, what can only be called, The Cricketing Wilderness...
